Default Exhaust Upgrade?

So we just recently got a 03 Baja N/A. Im looking to do an exhaust upgrade on it probably in a month or so but want to get my homework started now.

Basically what i would like to achieve is to keep the cruck as quiet as possible at low-mid rpm range but as much power gains possible.

Im thinking of going for 2.25" Header back.

Im undecided on the Headers though. I was initially thinking Borla UEL headers, Stromung high flow cat pipe..?
Does EL/UEL make as much difference on a N/A as on Turbo?
Will EL be quieter than the Borla UEL?

If there really isnt much difference between the two as far as loudness and performance goes then i will probably just go with the Borla for the added 'rumble'.

Also im guessing that regardless of which header i go for and since the rest of the exhaust will be 2.25" with one high flow cat, i will still need to throw a resonator or mid silencer in there to achieve the sound issues?
